Everyone was at it.

No other event

is like that no other communal event that you might go to and sit through is like that it is worth it it is worth the effort to go as a game there wasn't a lot of beautiful football that's got to be admitted but both sides got it there was fire and brimstone

None of our boys disappointed in that regard.

Their goal came from our constant pressure and our goal came from our constant pressure and we finished the game, again, with constant pressure.

Nothing to complain about there.

Nor of any of the individuals John Messina put out on the park.

I know that they had their share of

I know that they're obviously, they're hugely expensively put together side.

We all know that by now, all the figures that have been tossed around, but millions and millions and millions of pounds worth of player out on that side.

Someone told me it was 50 plus million in their side, a fraction on our side, of course, of that.

Anyway, let's just go through our more modestly put together side, but one that we can be proud of on the day.

Schmidt, as so often, he made two massive saves, didn't he, in this game from Armstrong?

Armstrong, whom he dueled throughout with because the guy's quick, the guy pressed him relentlessly.

with more pace than I can remember seeing at Fratton Park recently in a striker.

But those two saves of Schmidt's were outstanding.

And, you know, I have to just remind, there were a few calling for him to be dropped.

Their posts are still there in evidence if you want to seek them out, but I wouldn't bother

We missed Ogilvy very badly over Christmas.

Everyone knows that.
